Reading the owners manual for my 2001 diesel it gives a minimum tow ball weight. I suspect this is a printing error as there is no maximum. It would be worth while looking at your manual & reading what it says. If any one was ever put over the scales & told there was a problem, producing the manual would probably muddy the water enough to get you out of trouble. ~ well thats my plan.

My 95 gives minimum and maximum towball weights, for the 4 litre petrol it states minimum 98kgs and max 130kgs, yet my genuine Jeep towbar states 114kgs max, I ignore the minimum, with my camper trailer I try to keep it around 70kgs, more them that and I can feel the difference, at around 70kgs it tows brilliantly (long distance use)...
